Manchester City faces a significant challenge in their pursuit of Eintracht Frankfurt’s Omar Marmoush, valued at £50 million. Pep Guardiola has identified the 25-year-old Egyptian forward as a key target to bolster City’s attacking options alongside Erling Haaland, following Julian Alvarez’s anticipated departure.
Marmoush has been in stellar form, netting 18 goals in 24 appearances this season. However, Eintracht, excelling domestically and in the Europa League, remains reluctant to sell mid-season. Director of football Markus Krosche insists the squad will stay intact unless “something extraordinary” happens. Elsewhere, City is advancing talks with Lens for defender Abdukodir Khusanov, rated at £30 million, as part of their defensive reinforcements.
Meanwhile, Galatasaray monitors Ilkay Gundogan’s situation, though a January exit seems unlikely. The 34-year-old midfielder, who rejoined City after a stint at Barcelona, has struggled for form and has recently been benched. Guardiola seeks midfield reinforcements to address a challenging season but prefers to delay player departures until summer.
Here is the skill highlight video of Omar Marmoush.
